Except that the incompetence of NIC was in full display throughout the vote count day. The site couldn’t be kept up for live results. Eventually they just put up a staid PDF for download. No heads would be rolling there ofcourse.

Tarun, I continuously refreshed and checked results online. It was certainly an experience better than the noise of TV news. It’s only now that the pdfs have come up.

NEW DELHI, 17 MAY: Notwithstanding the speedy counting of ballots, the tall claims made by the Election Commission of “real time dissemination of poll results” through its high-tech website http://www.eciresults.nic.in http://www.eciresults.nic.in fell flat as it was rarely accessible between 9 am and 5 pm yesterday when curiosity about the election results was at its peak.
The malfunctioning of the much hyped website has not only exposed the claims made by the EC and the National Informatics Commission, but has also put a question mark on the functioning of NIC, which provided network backbone and e-governance support to government bodies. The EC results portal started functioning properly only after 5 p m when the show was almost over. It also failed to provide the services it had claimed it would and had only a partial data bank. There was no segment for polling analysis, no details of polling or the difference between winning and losing candidates. Agreeing that eager poll watchers had a “big problem” in accessing the http://www.eciresults.nic.in (http://www.eciresults.nic.in) , both ECI and NIC tried to pass the buck on each other for the `malfunctioning’. While EC said the problem of access was because of the NIC server that could not sustain the huge load of traffic, the NIC maintained there was no problem at its end and it was only the code and methodology adopted by the ECI which caused interruption in services. Whatever the reason, the arrangements made by the ECI and NIC for ensuring the real time results to general public proved futile. The NIC had made arrangements to serve 30 lakh hits at a time, ensured 16 GB RAM and 35 MBPS speed to the server especially installed for the purpose. Other than this, five servers of the same capacity were installed to handle traffic at the speed of 100 MBPS at NIC, with one server exclusively handling the database.
